I am trust worthy and I believe in honesty and American Workmanship..

Fair housing laws state:If you or someone associated with you:Have a physical or mental disability (including hearing, mobility and visual impairments, chronic alcoholism, chronic mental illness, AIDS, AIDS Related Complex and mental retardation) that substantially limits one or more major life activitiesHave a record of such a disability orAre regarded as having such a disabilityyour landlord may not:Refuse to let you make reasonable modifications to your dwelling or common use areas, at your expense, if necessary for the disabled person to use the housing.

SO nothing out of the pocket of the tenants, but the evil landlords that work hard to provide a solid home for these people get screwed.That is just CHICAGO proper and nothing is stopping you from investing here or as I do, in other areas around Chicagoland where the laws are more even and fair.

If you will be investing in Canada, there will be some differences, most notably in the areas of regulation (law), finance (which you would likely know already), and taxation.

@Grant Fosheim , my brother in law used them for few years and was pretty happy.

Btw, a purchase and sale agreement (not a lease option) that provides for delivery of a deed in less than six months is not classified as an executor contract under existing Texas law or the new law.2) Rent credits should be not used after Jan 10 2014 due to Dodd Frank.3) Buyer gets the deed when title conveys and existing financing is paid off (loan is approved.4) Some states like NC make it difficult to evict, and they need to have some kind of foreclosure.

You will quickly notice the differences from Canada are most notably in the areas of regulation (law), finance, and taxation.

They can stick any arrearages into the repayment and you'll get monthly payments on that, but moving forward they have to make the regular payments on time.The judge does not have the power to restructure your contract other than what is allowed under BK law on dismissing unsecured debt.

I currently work downtown in D.C. for a small law firm as an IP docketing specialist.
